I am moving out this sub stack in FLEET mode not RAIDER mode.

But, the CV can't launch a strike whereas the subs are in FLEET mode.

Same problem, I can't attack whereas I am in range to do so and the subs stack is in FLEET mode.

Subs can never be attacked by naval units (including CVs) unless their hex "touch" a land hex.

Are you sure? I had a big doubt. If so, false issue.

Yes. CVs could before, but that was also changed in a patch earlier this year. They now follow same rule as others ships. Only land based aircraft can "initiate" battle against subs "deep" at sea.

Cant attack subs in open sea with ships. Air units can though as they are considered constantly searching for 2 weeks. Naval units run out a mission and come back. Otherwise subs would get blown away at will.
